The Electric and Magnetic Fluids

hollow; furthermore, imagine that you are in the center of a fiery ball that includes the whole universe. You have got to imagine the fire element red hot and bright, similar to the sun. You will feel the warmth on the periphery of your own body automatically in this imagination,
because you already learned about this sensation in the chapter referring to projection. Doing this exercise you should perceive the expansion of the fire element within your body. You have to imagine that the universal fire element presses the light into your hollow body when expanding. The more intense and fiery you imagine the universal fire ball, the more light is pressed into your body through the pores of the skin from all directions, your whole body being loaded with light. You must perceive the pressure of the light inside your body, feeling it like a balloon swollen with light. The pressure of the light is supposed to go from the outside to the inside. At this moment you will experience the sensation of an unusual fullness, as if you were ready to burst. Go on breathing calmly while performing this exercise,
because in this dynamic accumulation of light you will be tempted to hold your breath, which you must avoid doing.
As soon as you have produced so strong an accumulation of light, viz., a light-dynamide, that your body is bursting, you will feel at the same moment that your whole body, mainly your fingertips, has been loaded with a strong electric current. Impress this perception very firmly on your mind, because this is actually the electric fluid I am talking about. If you accomplished this accumulation, allow the universal fire to fade away slowly with the help of the imagination until it has gone out completely. At the same time you have to imagine that the accumulated light is diminishing too, the power of expansion gradually becoming weaker and weaker, until everything inside and outside yourself has turned pale and finally extinct.
Hereby the first exercise of the inductive method concerning the electric fluid is at an end.
When after several practices you have achieved a certain skill in producing the electric fluid without difficulty, you may begin to perform a desire impregnation on the electric fluid. All you have to do is imagine that the light accumulated inside you, or better to say, the electric fluid contained in the light, reinforces and increases you active powers in the spirit, soul and body. In this manner you can arouse all the active faculties, qualities, etc., that are imputed to the fire element and the air element in yourself. You have the possibility, for example, to increase your will power, your faith, and your control of the element to a supernatural degree.
It is indeed quite impossible to describe with mere words the range of power and strength achieved in this way, and you will be convinced of it best by your own experiences.
In the previous steps I have always pointed out how very important it is to ennoble the soul,
to be free of passions and to try to reach the magic equilibrium. If an unrighteous and passionate person who has not yet reached the full magic balance wished to perform these exercises, he would only increase his passions by activating them. He would hardly be able to control his passions, which could become fateful for him. Everybody will see that these warnings are not mere words or a simple moral lecture. A well-balanced personality, however,
has nothing to fear. On the contrary, e will have every opportunity to ascend and be fortunate enough to realize his highest ideals.
